Yikes, there are hundreds to thousands of used equipment vendors on the WWW.  
Why focus on two?  If one sticks to KEH (who aren't exactly e-commerce 
trendsetters), you are often paying a premium for reputation.  Many in 
competition look at KEH prices as benchmarks for what not to sell at.  In 
another words, thousands of prospective buyers have a KEH catalog and only 
have to pick up the phone to place an order.  So the retails shops say "We'd 
better price it below KEH to entice the folks who passed up the same item 
from KEH."  That is the downside to publishing a catalog.
